The Marvelous Elijah's Return Your word is law
At three o’clock on a warm Wednesday, one after another, flashy cars started driving into the yard of the Hayes’ and family members started arriving for the family meeting.And by four o’clock, a black Range Rover pickup rolled into the yard, and when it came to a stop, Josh and his wife, Iris stepped out, her holding onto his arm.“Do you know why grandma wants everyone here again,” Iris whispered as her husband led her towards the mansion. But he was too moody to care and answered her questions because Madam Jewel lashed out at him the day they got back from the motel, and his anger was still fresh, even though it was days ago.The sound of a car engine made Josh stop to see a Porsche 356 GTi, coming to a halt right next to the Land Rover.When the driver door opened, Melina stepped out, wearing a dress, which hugged her curves in a very revealing way, frowning at her brother because she was still mad at him. “Sister-in-law,” Iris cried as Melina approached the couple.The fact t
The Marvelous Elijah's Return A Rat
Running his fingers in his hair, Elijah paced slowly around the room with his phone pressed against his ear as he said, "Yeah, morning, Ryan."As he walked into the room of the hotel suite, Rookie moved his lips to speak, but he froze, staring at Ryan sitting on the edge of the bed when he heard him say, "Boss, week three report,""I am listening," Elijah answered, pausing in the middle of the room. "This week, Bryan Check met up with Mr. Adams, President of the Light world company, Mrs. D'Alencias, CEO of Caelum Technologies, and Mr. David Rossi, chairman of Rossi Industries. We investigated these three for suspicious activity in their businesses, but they are clean..." Ryan said, eyeing Rookie when he sat by him.Allowing those words to sink in his thoughts, Elijah began pacing again as he muttered under his breath, “Clean?”Feeling uneasy by his boss's tone and question, Ryan paused, putting the call on speaker for Rookie to hear, and said, "We have been following Bryan for thre
The Marvelous Elijah's Return A man lives to die
After an hour-plus drive, Elijah pulled into a small clearing. Getting out of his car, Elijah and Matt stared at the old warehouse in front of them, and how deserted this area was."Boss, it's not too late to get back into the car," Matt whispered, gesturing to the car behind them. "I don't think it's safe to walk to the warehouse..."Patting Matt on the back, Elijah smiled and teased, "Grow some backbone, man."'I have a backbone. I'm just worried about your safety. Your father will not be happy with my performance if a bullet or knife strikes through your heart.' Matt thought to himself, keeping quiet about his concerns. 'I don't want this to go South, boss.'Shaking his head lightly, Elijah pulled out his phone, scrolled through his contact, and stopped at Jerome's number, dialing it without hesitation.The phone rang twice before there was a click and Jerome answered, "Hey, boss.""I'm outside. Come out," Elijah ordered calmly, his eyes scanning the surrounding area.The line went
The Marvelous Elijah's Return A death wish
There was a long pause as Dice stared calmly at Elijah, his expression blank and emotionless, not breaking eye contact with him."You got some powerful people on your ass," Dice remarked, crossing his arms against his chest, waiting for Elijah's reaction. "Why?"Elijah didn't budge as he stared back at Dice, not saying a word, and he didn't give anything away, nor gave any hint to Dice as to what he was feeling by those words."The Hayes... the rat works for the Hayes family, mainly Dean Hayes." Dice paused again for another second, making sure his words were completely understood. Silently, Elijah eyed Matt, seeing the look of concern and worry etched on his features, and he then shifted his gaze over at Dice.A faint frown surfaced on Rick's lips as he looked at Larry and mumbled, "Didn't the news say that Melina's ex-husband is a worthless stay-at-home husband with nothing to his name except his desire to leech off her wealth, so how is this guy before us the same man on the news.
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Her plans would get ruined
The last time Madam Jewel was here, things quickly escalated, and Peach didn't want to experience it again, and somewhat, she was thankful that Elijah wasn't here since she knew the hostility madam Jewel had toward him. "Sure, but my mom gets to come." Peach said, calmly staring between Madam Jewel and Dean. The thought of being alone with these two made her alert, and she didn't want to face them on her own, knowing their temperaments. "Of course. We came to talk to both you and Grace." Madam Jewel with a sweet smile that made Peach more uneasy. Suddenly, the front door of the motel opened, and Peach felt her heart leap into her throat as she watched Elijah and Matt, walking into the lobby. His gaze resting on Dean, Elijah's brows snapped as he blurted out of curiosity, "What's going on here?" A sense of raw animosity and anger filled Dean's features, keeping steady eye contact with Elijah as he let out, "It's none of your business. Get lost." "The question was not meant for y
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Don't hate me
Eyeing her son, Madam Jewel gave him a cold stare and then said, "No, that's all... I hope that you will honor your word and show up because your grandfather at least deserves such reverence from you."The dull pain in Peach's cheek still pissed her off, but she ignored it as the memories of her grandfather flashed before her eyes, and her lips trembled as she tried to cage her emotions and said, "Sure. For my grandfather, I can tolerate coming."The sight of Madam Jewel and Dean, the longer they stood in her face made Peach feel incredibly uncomfortable, and she blinked back her tears, averted her gaze, and stared down at the invitation."If that is all, I would like to attend to my daughter's wound," Miss Grace said in annoyance, her eyes fixed upon Dean as she continued speaking quietly. "You guys can see yourself out."Unexpectedly, Madam Jewel walked over to Peach, taking her hands in her grips, startling her with the sudden contact that caused her to look at her in surprise.Mad
The Marvelous Elijah's Return He's escaping
The line was filled with Vlad breathing heavily and the sound of cars whizzing by, and then Dean finally heard "Boss, I got kidnapped and was just released on the side of the road with a bruised face, no shoes, and bloody clothes.." Snapping his brows in confusion, Dean looked at his mother, who had a serious expression on her face and was glaring at him as he let out, "What are you talking about?!" "Someone has people watching the motel... I don't know, boss... I don't know who it is... I don't know who the men were or how many they are because I was blindfolded, but they didn't like that I had been snooping around the motel!" Vlad explained, sounding frustrated. A sense of worry and anger welled in Dean as he tried to control the emotions rising inside of him, clenching his fists, he hissed, "What?!... What did you tell them then... huh? Did you tell them who asked you to spy on the motel?!" "No! Of course not, boss. I would never betray the Hayes family like that." Vlad pro
The Marvelous Elijah's Return What did she say?
With messy morning hair, a yawning mouth, and sleepy eyes, Peach walked into the lobby in a large t-shirt and shorts, and then smiled, not caring that James and Matt were there.A month plus with these guys had made her so comfortable with their presence that she didn't care for her look or to act formally anymore with them."James, what is for breakfast," Peach asked softly, smiling as their eyes locked.A warm expression graced his face as he grinned at her and said, "Pancake, muffins, toast, bacon, eggs..."The Sound of the front door opening caused him to glance back and frown as Ryan let out, walking into the lobby. "Did someone say egg... I hope it's not burnt."A wide smile spread against Peach's face as her eyes widened and she shouted, "Ryan, Rookie!! You guys!!!" "Peach!" Ryan replied, grinning as he turned away from James and looked at her.As she was about to head over to hug them, Peach felt a presence behind her and immediately stopped in her tracks. Turning slightly

The Marvelous Elijah's Return Epilogue Four
“Piki, stop.” Dan cried, afraid that she was going to get punished because of him.The noise coming from the children's section got the grown-up's attention, and then they hear a little girl, “Piki is beating up Kelvin.”Immediately, Peach and Elijah ran to the backyard with the other adults, and when the kids saw Elijah coming towards them, they split up, giving him access to his daughter.“Get off him, Piki,” Elijah said, frowning as his daughter raised her fist to strike Kelvin in the face again. “Now!”When she refused to listen, he grabbed her by her jumpsuit and pulled her off Kelvin, hugging her in his arms.Immediately, she started crying on her father's shoulder, choking on her tears.“Now what are you crying about?” Elijah said, caught between wanting to discipline her and comfort her.“Kelvin kicked my gift and hurt Dan!! I just wanted him to stop being mean to Dan!!” Piki cried, hugging her father's neck.Looking down at Dan, Elijah saw the cut on the back of his hand, and
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Epilogue Three
Six SUVs in rolls came to a stop in front of the Syldavia Supermax prison, and five of their doors immediately opened and a bunch of men in black suits rushed for the third car's back door.When one of them opened it, Bryan Checks stepped out, adjusted his coat, and walked into the building. When the security on duty saw him, they immediately saluted him, and Bryan nodded before walking past them. “He’s such a faithful son. Even though his father is in prison for posting threats to the life of the president and important government officials and trying to kill him, he still shows up here every year to visit him.” A guard said as he watched Bryan walk away.“Yeah, he's a great son.” The other guard mumbled under his breath.A while later, after following all the prison procedures, Bryan was placed in a room with his dad cuffed to the table.“Get out of my face!!!” Mr. Landon screamed as loud as possible. “I don’t wanna see you! Get the hell out!!”A smirk played on Bryan's lips as he
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Epilogue Two
The breathtaking garden in the back of the Maxwells mansion was extremely decorated with white tents with a makeshift ceiling designed with floral chandeliers.The altar was framed with a few oversized floral arrangements. It was simple but extremely elegant, and even the weather seemed to be in a good mood that day.“Da-Da!” Piki shouted in Mrs. Maxwell's arms when she saw Elijah approaching them from the opposite direction. “Dada! Dada!“There’s my Princess,” Elijah said when he reached them, grabbing her from in his mother's arms and kissing her cheeks repeatedly as her wild laughter filled the air. Then he looked at his mother and said, “I can't believe I am doing this for the third time again.”“You know what they say. Third time is the charm,” Mrs. Maxwell replied, smiling. “This time you and Peach are in a better place in your life. Piki is one year old, and you guys have given yourself a long time to heal from the past. Now, you two can seal your future again and start a new

“Three months! She's three freaking months,” Elijah mumbled, looking down at his baby and smiling at her in her crib. “Can she stop growing?”A laugh escaped Peach’s lips as she stared at her husband standing over their daughter's crib and then she walked over to him wrapping her arms around his waist, saying, “She is not going to stop growing. You have to prepare your heart to watch her become a woman.”“I don't want her to...” Elijah said as Piki grabbed his hand, trying to pull it into her mouth. “There’s nothing we can do about that, honey. All we can do is be there for her and record her growth, so we can have something to look back on. That's why today is important.”“I know, babe… Honestly, I can't wait for them to meet her.”A knock on the couple made Peach let go of Elijah and walked over to the door, and when she opened it, Miss Grace was standing there with a smile on her face.“Matt and the others are here.” Miss Grace said, causing Elijah to raise his head and gaze at th
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Face to face
Like a madman, Deacon opened fire on the SUV, bullets flying everywhere as he screamed, “Go to hell!”As the sound of bullets hitting the car from every angle, Matt, Dice, and Rookie kept their head down, and Matt could hear Elijah screaming from the other end of the call, “Matt, say something! Please! Are you guys okay?! Is anyone Hurt? Fucking tell me something, anything!”“We are okay, boss!” Matt shouted back, because of the deafening sound of the fires.Finally, silence ceased the atmosphere, and immediately, Dice raised his head, feeling glad that he was working for Elijah because of how built their vehicles were, and even though the car took a lot of hits, a single bullet didn't penetrate the car.Staring at Deacon, Dice immediately guess that he was out of bullets, and with a fifty-fifty chance that that was true, he jumped out of the car, causing Rookie to scream, “Dice, no!”When Deacon saw him coming toward him, he turned to run for his car, but like a wild cat, Dice lunged
The Marvelous Elijah's Return A face in the crowd
With a smile on his face, Elijah held Piki with one hand, and in his other hand, his phone as he walked around the garden.It took a moment for his call to get answered, and when Bryan's face appeared in the video call, he blurted out, “I can not believe I am saying this, but congratulations, Senator Checks on winning the election.”It grew silent for a second, and then both men burst into laughter, excitement clear in each of their voices. “Thanks, Bro,” Bryan said after they had caught their breath. “For everything. I mean it from the depths of my heart. Today wouldn't have been possible without your help.”“I was just paying my debt to you.” Elijah teased, and then said with a bit of remorse in his voice. “I am just sad that I couldn't be there in person today to watch you speak to the public. But all of my men are going to be there to show my support.”“I appreciate that. Also, you got Piki and Peach to be there for, so I understand.” “Yeah,”The call went silent for a split sec
The Marvelous Elijah's Return You safe me
The sound of Piki screaming made Peach feel for Elijah, her fingers poking his nose and eyes as her palm rubbed against his face, and she whispered, “Babe, the baby is crying.”Sleepily, Elijah opened his eyes and then closed them, moaning out a breath as he mumbled, “I am up.”Yet, he was still laying with his eyes closed, but another scream from Piki made him jump from his sleep, shouting, “I am up, baby! Daddy is up!”Then he jumped from the bed, rushing to her crib, and reached into it, scooping her up and cradling her, singing nonsense words at her that made Peach giggle sleepily.Even though the two weeks of taking care of a newborn were challenging, Elijah refused a nursery for the baby, allowing her to sleep in his room, and denied the offer of a nanny. His heart won't let him trust a soul other than his internal family around his daughter, after everything that he and Peach had gone through.“Shush,” Elijah murmured quietly at her, pressing a kiss to her forehead. “Is your p
The Marvelous Elijah's Return I love you
Early that morning, Madam Maxwell was a bit on the edge as she walked around the kitchen, tasting and giving instructions for every meal the maids were preparing. Her eyes would occasionally flicker from stove to pots and pans, her lips pursed in concentration. Finally, the sound of Miss Grace's voice drew her attention to the kitchen doorway when she heard, “Elijah, Peach, and the baby are home.”A look of raw excitement came over Lisa's face and she smiled widely as she rushed out of the kitchen with Miss Grace following closely behind.When they got into the living room, both their eyes were wet with tears to see little Piki in the car seat that Elijah was hoping for, and suddenly, the two days of waiting felt worth it for both grandmothers.Not wasting a second, Miss Grace ran to Elijah while Mrs. Maxwell rushed for Peach and they pulled the couple into a tight hug.“Thank you, Elijah. Thank you.” Miss Grace cried at her son-in-law.Even though Elijah was trying to keep up the t
